Hello!! I am an evolutionary biologist working at the Department of Botany and Geology (Faculty of Biological Sciences-University of Valencia) in València, Spain.
Currently, I am involved in a number of projects about lichenized and non-lichenized fungi thanks to a collaboration with several colleagues. My research is focused on unveiling the spatial and temporal origin of populations of lichenized fungi in the Mediterranean and Antarctica as well as addressing several aspects of species taxonomy. Species showing a bipolar (amphitropical) disjunct distribution are one of my main study targets. I also use some of my free time to study the diversity of lichenized fungi in my home region in the eastern Iberian Peninsula. I have been passionate about the taxonomy of non-lichenized fungi producing fruiting bodies ("mushrooms") since long. Nowadays, I study the diversity of one of the most complex groups of basidiomycetes -Cortinarius- through a combination of traditional (morphology, anatomy, chemistry) and phylogenetic analyses. I have been co-author of several new species in the last years. My practical and theoretical background ranges from fieldwork, laboratory of molecular biology, and different analytical techniques for processing genetic data: population genetics and genomics, phylogenetics, biogeography, next generation sequencing (Illumina),... |

Background
- Nov 2020 - (ongoing) Assitant Professor at the Department of Botany and Geology - University of Valencia. I teach theoretical and practical lessons in several subjects of the Biology and Pharmacy degrees. I also conduct my own research about lichenized and non-lichenized fungi in collaboration with Eva Barreno's research group (Institut Cavanilles de Biodiversitat i Biologia Evolutiva - Universitat de València).

Research project "Lichen symbiosis as a complex mutualistic association and paradigm of resiliencie to adverse environments. Genomic, structural and functional diversity" (PROMETEO/2017/039, Principal Researcher: Eva Barreno). My research was focused on studying fungal-algal diversity and interactions among several lichen symbioses using Sanger and Illumina data.
